Ron Trent

Saturday-Party 2

Ron Trent is authentic. His true self is on display. He is boldly honest and does not put on airs. Even for Hollywood. He remains loyal to his art and passions. Listen deeply to the percussion speak. Piano keys that uplift.  Electronica bouncing underneath the 6th Street Bridge. This is music that heals. A sacred medicine draws those wearing t-shirts with random slogans and shoulders covered by jackets into the airy night.  Sixty degrees feels comfortable, but the music is what heats the heart of a dancer.  Dreamy chords and meditative melodies transform the open-air gathering into a communal dance. Although, Trent’s “I’m glad people actually showed up” crowd could have been more receptive. The lack of response is most disturbing when playing the anthem of the weekend-SoulFreakah’s Mix of “Cure Of A Heartache.” Cause when Brutha Ron drops the music for voices to sing “I’ve had my eyes on you for awhile…,” heard are crickets. Stunned silence. Welcome to L.A.
